Retailers Can Make Money on New Lines Manufactured by Chicago Lumber Company

Announcing what they believe to be the most. cornplete line of garden trellises on the market the Chicago Lumber Co. of Washington, has issued an illustrated price list ot {'CHILCO" garden trellises, manufactured at their big plant in Oakland.

In speaking of this line to a representative of this paper, E. A. Horr, sales manager, said that live retail lumber dealers all over the country are recognizing the money making possibilities of lines such as this.

' "The line includes 13 different designs and a combination trellis to completely encase side and top of window openings for any and all windows 48 inches wide to 144 inches wide between side trellises.

"These trelli,ses are made of Clear Heart California Redwood, the'Wood Everlasting,' and are completely finished and stained dark green ready for immediate use. This color, in most cases harmonizes best with outside surroundings. All members are % " thick by I3/L6" wide, thus providing a more sturdy type of construction than is usually found in merchandise of this kind," said Mr. Horr.

Another line which is rapidly finding a place in dealers' display rooms is shown on the back of the price list. This is a "Silent Salesman," containing an assortment of 100 pieces Clear Redwood Flower and Garden Stakes, lxl and from 3 to 6 feet long, furnished either round or square. The "Silent Salesman" occupies only four square feet of floor space. All stakes are stained dark green, ends pointed. tops painted white, and display box is stained same color.

Correction

The statement made in a news item in the April 1, issue of this paper that The C. L. Thompson Co., San Francisco and Los Angeles, are Coast distributors of Masonite is incorrect.

The C. L. Thompson Co., whose headquarters are in San Francisco, are distlibutors of Masonite'in Northern Cali- fornia and the Northwestern states. They maintain a branch office in Los Angeles at 324 North Sin Pedro St., but the activities of this office are confined to the sale of Cromar Oak Flooring, for which they are Coast distributors. Fletcher & Frambes, Los Angeles, are the distributors of Masonite in Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico and El Paso. Texas.
